The Valentine’s season is one for love. However, this year, it is perfectly set up to whet the appetite for everyone’s love for sports. Between the Super Bowl, the All-Star weekend, and the NBA trade deadline, the week promises to be a jam-packed one. While the former 2 focus on games themselves, the latter is all about rumors, drama, and storylines. And, this year, a select crew featuring the legendary Boston Celtics duo of Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce is ready to take us all on a joyride.

After conquering the podcasting sphere with The Truth & The Ticket, the 2008 Championship core now has the NBA Trade Deadline in sight. But they aren’t coming alone. With DeMarcus Cousins, Matt Barnes, and Stephen Jackson, they have a ton of “dawgs” along with them.

To conduct proceedings, former ESPN employee Rachel Nichols is also taking center stage. In a joint post by All The Smoke Productions and Cousins, the official tagline was in place. “Avengers assembling for the trade deadline.”
